     (wherein R is a C 2 -C 6  alkyl group, a C 2 -C 6  alkenyl group, a C 2 -C 6  alkynyl group or the like, B 0  to B 2  and B 3  are hydrogen atoms, halogen atoms, cyano groups, C 1 -C 4  haloalkyl groups or the like, n is 0, 1 or 2, and Ar is a phenyl ring, a pyridine ring, a thiophene ring, a pyrazole ring or the like), and insecticides and miticides containing the 3-arylphenyl sulfide derivatives as an active ingredient.

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to novel 3-arylphenyl sulfide derivatives and insecticides and miticides containing them as an active ingredient.

BACKGROUND ART

[0002] East German Patent No. 142541, East German Patent No. 142542, JP-A-7-2655 and Tetrahedron vol. 39, p.2289 (1983) and Tetrahedron Lett. vol. 25, 44, p.5095 (1984) disclose 3-methylthiobiphenyl derivatives, and East German Patent No. 4323916 and International Patent Application WO95/02580 disclose 3-pyridylphenyl sulfide derivatives. However, none of them mention anything about insecticides or miticides. Also, International Patent Application WO96/06830, JP-A-2-184675, JP-A-60-233061, European Patent No. 152590, South African Patent No. 6800955 and German Patent No. 3316300 report 3-azorylphenyl sulfide derivatives but mention nothing about insecticides or miticides. On the other hand, use of 4-biphenyl sulfide derivatives as insecticides is reported, for example, in U.S. Pat. No. 3,442,955. However, the 3-arylphenyl sulfide derivatives of the present invention have not been known yet.

[0003] In recent years, some of the conventional commercial insecticides are restricted in their use in view of problems of persistency, accumulation and environmental pollution, and others have become less effective as the pest insects have acquired resistance during their use for a long period of time. Therefore, it has been desired to develop a new insecticide which is highly effective at a low dose and excellent in safety.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

[0004] Under these circumstances, the present inventors have synthesized various 3-arylphenyl sulfide derivatives and have studied their physiological activities. As a result, it has been found that the compounds of the present invention exhibit outstanding effects on various pests, especially on farm and garden pests including mites represented by two-spotted spider mite, Kanzawa spider mite and citrus red mite, pest lepidopterans represented by diamondblacknoss, Asiatic rice borer and beat armyworm, pest hemipterans represented by brown rice planthopper, green rice leafhopper and cotton aphid and pest coleoptera represented by adzuki bean weevil. The present invention has been accomplished on the basis of this discovery.

[0333] The insecticides and miticides of the present invention contain 3-arylphenyl sulfide derivatives represented by general formula (I) as an active ingredient.

[0334] When a compound of the present invention is used as the active ingredient of a pesticide, it may be used by itself. However, it can be formulated into various formulations such as an emulsifiable concentrate, a suspension, a dust, a granule, a tablet, a wettable powder, a water-soluble concentrate, a solution, a flowable suspension, a water dispersible granule, an aerosol, a paste, an oil formulation and a concentrated emulsion in water in combination with various carriers, surfactants and other adjuvants which are commonly used for formulation as agricultural adjuvants. They are blended usually in such proportions that the active ingredient is from 0.1 to 90 parts by weight and the agricultural adjuvants are from 10 to 99.9 parts by weight.

[0335] The carriers to be used for such formulation may be classified into solid carriers and liquid carriers. The solid carriers include, for example, animal and plant powders such as starch, activated carbon, soybean powder, wheat flour, wood flour, fish flour and powdered milk, and mineral powders such as talc, kaolin, bentonite, calcium carbonate, zeolite, diatomaceous earth, white carbon, clay and alumina. The liquid carriers include, for example, water; alcohols such as isopropyl alcohol and ethylene glycol; ketones such as cyclohexanone and methyl ethyl ketone; ethers such as dioxane and tetrahydrofuran; aliphatic hydrocarbons such as kerosene and light oil; aromatic hydrocarbons such as xylene, trimethylbenzene, tetramethylbenzen, methylnaphthalene and solvent naphtha; halogenated hydrocarbons such as chlorobenzene; acid amides such as dimethylacetamide; esters such as glycerin esters of fatty acids; nitrites such as acetonitrile; and sulfur-containing compounds such as dimethyl sulfoxide.

[0336] The surfactants include, for example, metal salts of alkylbenzenesulfonic acids, metal salts of dinaphthylmethandisulfonic acids, salts of alcohol sulfates, alkylarylsulfonates, lignin sulfonates, polyoxyethylene glycol ethers, polyoxyethylene alkyl aryl ethers, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monoalkylates.

[0337] The other adjuvants include, for example, adhesive agents and thickeners such as carboxymethylcellulose, gum arabic, sodium arginate, guar gum, tragacanth gum, and polyvinyl alcohol, antifoaming agents such as metal soap, physical property improvers such as fatty acids, alkyl phosphate salts, silicone and paraffin and coloring agents.

[0338] When these formulations are practically used, they may be used directly or after diluted with a diluent such as water to a predetermined concentration. Various formulations containing the compounds of the present invention, whether diluted or not, may be applied by conventional methods, i.e., application methods (such as spraying, misting, atomizing, dusting, granule application, paddy water application and seeding box application), soil treatment (such as mixing or drenching), surface application (such as painting, dressing and covering), dipping or poison bait. Further, the above active ingredients may be incorporated into livestock feeds so as to prevent infestation or growth of pest, especially pest insects after they are voided in excrement. Otherwise, they can also be applied in low volume at high concentration, when the active ingredient may be contained up to 100%.

[0339] The pesticides of the present invention are applied usually at an active ingredient concentration of from 0.1 to 50000 ppm, preferably from 1 to 10000 ppm.

[0340] The active ingredient concentration can be suitably changed in accordance with the type of formulation, the method, the purpose, the season or the site of application and the degree of infestation the pest. For example, when an aquatic pest is to be controlled by applying a formulation within the above-mentioned concentration range to the infested site, the concentration of the active ingredient in water may be below the above-mentioned range. The dose per unit area is usually from 0.1 to 5000 g, preferably 1 to 1000 g, per 1 ha in terms of the compound that serves as the active ingredient. However, the dose is not limited to such specific range.

[0341] The compounds of the present invention are sufficiently effective when used alone. However, they may be used, if necessary, in combination or in admixture with fertilizers or other agrochemicals such as insecticides, miticides, nematicides, fungicides, antivirus agents, attractants, herbicides and plant growth regulants, and such combined use can sometimes produce improved effects.
